Both spontaneous emission and resonant energy transfer can be enhanced significantly when the emitter is placed in the vicinity of metallic or crystal structures. This enhancement can be described using the electromagnetic Green tensor and is determined by the dominant surface modes of the structure. Here we use the eigenpermittivity formalism to derive the spontaneous emission and FRET rates in the quasistatic regime in a two-constituent medium with an anisotropic inclusion. We then apply our results to a helical structure supporting synchronous vibrations and evaluate the contribution of these modes, which are associated with a strong and delocalized response. We show that this contribution can result in large Purcell factors and long-range FRET, which oscillates with the helix pitch. These findings may have implications in understanding and controlling the interactions of molecules close to helical structures such as the microtubules. |
